Delete Genius from sidebar Playlist in iTunes 12

How do I delete Genius from the sidebar playlist in iTunes 12, when it has never been turned on?

Create a new playlist folder. Drag it into the folder. Delete the folder. It's gone! If you want it back, Go to Account on the menu bar and select Turn on Genius.

Thank You so much! As you can see, I've been waiting 6 months for a solution.

When I try to drag it into a new playlist folder it does not drag.  Am I misunderstanding you?  Here's a screen shot of a playlist folder I created called "trash".

Thanks, PenPenKun.  Your solution is genius.  Intuitively, you'd think you would right click on the Genius playlist, then hit delete (like all other Playlists), but nooooo.  Creating a folder, dragging it in, then deleting the folder is a crazy workaround, but I'm glad it works.  It sounds silly, but I just didn't like looking at that Genius logo when I don't use Genius.

I have the same problem as kidquotes. Genius has never been turned on and it won't drag into any playlist!!!

Please help...

iTunes 12.3.2

OSX 10.11.3

The icon in kidquotes' screenshot seems to be a "playlist icon". The genius playlist must be dragged onto a "playlist folder icon". See third choice below...

Thank you very much mountaintrail!

Yes using a playlist folder finally worked for me. Although, I've just noticed that Genius re-appears every time i re-start itunes. Have you (or anyone else) noticed this? Anyway, thanks again for taking the time, I appreciate it.

PenPenKun!

Just found your solution (7/16) to removing the Genius Playlist from iTunes 12 sidebar. Speaking of Genius, thanks for sharing yours!

Sir/Madam, you are a GENIUS much love!
